Project-Based Learning

Project Showcase
Colonization of Mars

Colonization of Mars

This was a devliable I made for a project focused on rockets and colonizing mars, it is a rocket with a small engine in it, once it is at it highest altitude the nose cap comes off and a parachute comes out.

Woodburning

Woodburning

I have been working on woodburning for a year and making this board for our Student of the Block display was a chance to try my skills on a bigger scale than I had done in the past. It is entirely wood burned and it took as many hours as a grade level project. I’m hopefully going to pain a boarder on some 2x4s to add a bit of color but that will be another project.

Exploring Shakespeare

Exploring Shakespeare

This project is an interactive slideshow showcasing different artworks inspired by Shakespeare's plays such as "Hamlet", "Macbeth", "Romeo and Juliet", and "A Midsummer Night's Dream".

Families

Survey, 2023

Avalon let me focus in my interest and find ways to learn and grow so I could turn it into a career in photography

Alumn

Survey, 2023

I think Avalon has always done an excellent job of empowering students to do the things they really care about and be themselves. During my time at Avalon I was able to truly explore what it meant to be myself and even do projects and get school credit for that work.
